I just did one more quick test. I renamed .emacs.d/elpa where I only have the newer version tramp to .emacs.d/elpa-bak. That seems to fix the problem.

Hi,

I verified that "emacs -Q" has no issues. I can reproduce the issue consistently without "-Q". Any information I can collect that will help debug the issue?

Thanks,
Mani

Does the problem also happen when calling "emacs -Q"? The GNU ELPA Tramp
package contains some thread code, leftover from my attempts to add such
support to Tramp (and which I hope to reanimate). It should be
deactivated by default.

The builtin version of Tramp does not contain this code.

Best regards, Michael.
